Not just boxing
Gathered the nerve to come up to this group and ask permission to take pictures. The boxing instructors gladly said yes. They were teaching a group of street kids boxing for free. Guess what? They're ballroom dancing teachers, too. I never thought boxing and dancing could ever go together. =)

boxing? uh-ohh.. i hope they don't become bully... ;)
Dancing teaches balance and works on the muscle groups that help with balance. Football players have been known to take dancing lessons to help.
Bruce Lee was an accomplished ball-room dancer in Hong Kong.
Dancing also strengthens the core muscles and that helps increase body control and lower the chance of injuries.
Great pictures, by the way.
thanks mae =)
thanks glenn! wow, i didnt know that about football players and bruce lee. cool. thanks again for dropping by. =)
hi was bloghopping by way of reg... great pictures. this one in particular touched me--it's so nice of those teachers to take on the streetkids.
i hope it makes a difference. boxing promotes focus and discipline. i hope this makes them reach for something more.
